Liu, Z. (author)Garments, one of the human basic needs, were customized and handmade before the Industrial Revolution. After the realization of mass production, the cost of a piece of clothing became lower, but some disadvantages arose. Garments were no longer made to measure and overproduction caused environmental problems. The new developments in digital...doctoral thesis 2023

Brueren, Pim (author)Due to the NECP, many homes are in need of renovation. In 2016, the Netherlands had 799,956 apartments built between 1906 and 1965. A large part consists of porch houses. The houses are poorly insulated due to hasty and savings in construction. This research focuses on walk-up apartments built after the Second World War. The aim is to define how...master thesis 2022

Çubukçuoglu, C. (author), Nourian, Pirouz (author), Sariyildiz, I.S. (author), Tasgetiren, M. Fatih (author)The paper proposes a generative design workflow for three major hospital layout planning steps to satisfy multiplex configurational requirements. The initial step is stacking through clustering functional spaces into floor plans, for which a spectral method is presented. Subsequently, a novel simultaneous process of zoning and routing is...journal article 2022
